Wikipedia's page of quotes from scientists opposing global warming is little more than a playground for cranks to put up anti-global warming arguments. It's up for deletion for the fifth time, but the crazy global warming deniers are already out in force. Will Wikipedia finally grow a brain and delete it? |

And this is why mobocracy doesn't work. We again applaud Stephen Harper for moving a once-fabled country into the Stone Age. |

A professor in China, writing incognito lest he be arrested, opines that China has recently become a fascist country. Of course, most of the policies that he cites to support this hypothesis were put in place under Mao or beforehand, but who cares about details like that? |

The folks at Susan G. Komen for the Cure are not going to get much sleep for a while: besides all the wingnut slop, they now face condemnation for "commodifying breasts and breast cancer" by making breast cancer advocacy an apolitical matter rather than a feminist pet-peeve. |

"Newt's second opponent is the mainstream media", says Chuck Norris as he delivers a roundhouse to Romney's head. Yet in the same article, he argues that Newt's first opponent is Mitt Romney's well-funded campaign, quoting a Washington Post exposé on Romney's billionaire "supporters". Logical consistency fail right there, Chuck. |

Afghanistan was an "ally" of the Soviets during Operation Cyclone, rather than being under Soviet occupation. Yugoslavia committed no genocide in Kosovo. Everyone who presently opposes the Syrian regime is a U.S. lackey. And things in Syria are just dandy. |
